Only have a small window every year to shoot these, but these are by far my favorite flowers.

Thanks Dan! I think I like these "because" of their limited blooming season. This year I lucked out as I made an impromptu trip to the Huntington and discovered they bloomed a little early and the pod that I usually visit that offers dappled light had already come and gone.

Congrats on your winning shot!

Cheers!

Thank you Greg!
Our local "Lily Pons" was just loaded with Giant Lotus, Lotus and a whole basket full of new species! The place was deserted of people. So it was a nice day! Here is what it looked like. This is a "dated" image because my visit was for the newest varieties but the view the samo!
